I've been thinking about New Year's resolutions, and realize that I can't even remember the ones I made last year, let alone whether I've achieved them! So in 2013 I resolve just to do my best whatever life throws at me. I hope that 2013 brings you health and contentment. This painting is Whangamata Beach- an iconic Kiwi holiday spot- it's just been purchased and is off to an expat in Western Australia , hopefully to remind them of home and what NZ summers are occasionally like!
